I have to think the jury is debating whether they can infer intent based upon the Former President's
#Trump
's reputation of being very hands on. Thus, the testimony of him being a micromanager was important to elicit. It is allowing the jury to connect the dots.

It doesn’t matter if you agree with the prosecution or not, this is amazing testimony to elicit. The level of detail only strengthens Ms. Daniels credibility. This detail is truly a prosecutor’s dream. I expect other witnesses to be called to corroborate the layout she described.

From a purely criminal intent standpoint: Former President Trump knowingly possessed this classified material and knew that he shouldn’t have possessed it. He even stated each material’s classification (ex: secret). Very damaging evidence if admitted at trial.

I understand "deeply held convictions" to mean that some people were never truly open to hearing the evidence and basing their verdict on that. Essentially, some jurors held preconceived notions about the case before they heard from the first witness. Just my opinion.

This argument is unlikely to hold up at trial. Sen. Mendenez works for the very body that helped create the FDIC during the Great Depression. The FDIC insures deposits in member banks up to $250,000 per ownership. Thus, his money in much safer in a bank than in his house.

@KatiePhang
Very, very shady move. He likely did for two reasons: 1) To see if the prosecution would ask for a mistrial (it likely would have been granted) as it would cause the entire proceedings to start over; 2) to get the jury to think twice before finding him guilty.

The elements of assault in the 2nd degree (the other element being the alleged victim was law enforcement) require intent. Nothing in the video shows Scottie Scheffler intentionally caused physical injury to the officer. The officer appeared to throw himself at the vehicle.

This is very important testimony to elicit. It ties the allegations of the payoff to the benefit of the campaign. It certainly appears it wasn’t to spare Mrs. Trump any embarrassment. That is the basis of the enhancement from a misdemeanor to a felony.

The DUI charge will be amended to DUI with Serious Bodily Injury. With these charges, jail time is a real possibility. Additionally, Felony DUI in Florida carries with it a mandatory adjudication which means the Defendant would automatically become a convicted felon if convicted.

The prosecution has presented evidence:

The defense stormed out of the courthouse today. I have to think they see the writing on the wall. The longer deliberations go on, the more likely there is a compromise verdict (guilty of lessers) or the jury is hung. An outright acquittal is unlikely at this point.

Let's clear something up: This statement is misleading. It is not up to her attorneys whether she testifies. They may give their recommendation but it is solely her decision. My opinion is that this is textbook PR spin for when she doesn't testify.

The evidence presented today further corroborates that Officer John O’Keefe never entered the residence, and the ME opined that “she didn’t see any signs of a major altercation.” Thus, it is very tough to get beat in the basement if you never went inside the house.

The defense filing from yesterday is unlikely going to deter a re-trial. With the prospect of another very expensive criminal trial on the horizon for the Defendant, this is absolutely the best time to discuss a plea. My thoughts: Vehicular Manslaughter 6-12 years.

I’ve watched this video several times. I see where the alleged civil conduct occurs. However, any potential cause of action would likely be very weak. The alleged victims don’t seem like they reacted in pain but rather shock. The contact seems more incidental than intentional.

This is going to lead to overcrowding in all county jails in Florida. The taxpayers are then going to have to pay to house the homeless in the jails. I think shelters or more low-income housing might be a more cost-effective way to solve this issue.

The theory the tail light evidence was planted is still far-fetched. Who planted it? When did they plant it? Throwing out non-stop conspiracy theories may work online, but in a court of law, you need hard facts to back up your claims, otherwise you lose credibility.

Wow! Vital evidence was just introduced. Officer John O’Keefe’s phone was outside between 32 and 34 Fairview Road all night. The phone never went inside the residence. Additionally, the 3 stairs of elevation occurred before Officer O’Keefe arrived at 34 Fairview Road.

The Commonwealth has now connected the death of Officer John O'Keefe to that of the vehicle operated by
